Trivia

On many of the occasions when a magician made a guest appearance on the show, host Cat Deeley would act as his assistant in one or more illusions. While these often involved her being either levitated, guillotined, impaled by spikes, crushed, stretched, or made to vanish, by far the most common was for her to be sawn in half, thirds or even quarters. On one of the occasions when she was sawn in half, Ant and Dec "stole" her halves and wheeled them off stage in opposite directions. On another occasion, she became the first British celebrity to take part in an illusion called Clearly Impossible, in which she was sawn in half inside a clear-sided box that gave an unobstructed view of her body all the way through the illusion.

Saturday morning television was pretty much ruled in the 90's by Live and Kicking over on the BBC until Ant, Dec and Cat launched this breath of fresh air onto Saturday mornings. No longer, were the kids young enough to still be watching Saturday morning TV but too old for the endless boring cartoons L&K showed, bored. With the great games, sketches and general FUN such as Challenge Ant and Chums SM:TV revitalised the mornings.

For three years it was great, then disaster. Ant and Dec leave and Cat is left alone with all those ridiculous people who were fired from previous TV parts. The great show was ruined.

Now lets see a few years after the 'glory' times of SMTV what ITV and BBC can offer now? ITV show the plain boring 'Ministry of Mayhem' and the BBC, well lets just say the title of their answer says it all 'Dick and Dom in da bungalow', the names, the fact they include 'da' into the title already point to it being terrible. And after closer inspection? Well I saw 5 minutes before losing the will to live.

Bring back Ant and Dec's SM:TV Live!
